Chapter 99 Breaking the Righteousness Is Dishonesty
After King Xi had prepared his army for half a year, he was preparing to send out his army for the seventh time to attack Lingjiao City.
It means that the upper-level forces on his side will come to the city first, and the upper-level forces on the opposite side will also be sent out, and the two sides will conduct a certain trial and confrontation.
Both sides have a certain tacit understanding here. They will not fight to the death, but will only wait for the many flying boat sergeants and creation weapons below to decide the winner. If one side loses, then the upper-level forces belonging to one side will automatically retreat.
But that's the case now, because both sides have room for advancement and retreat. If it really comes to the point of no retreat, it will be very difficult to say.
In the main hall, after King Xi held a military meeting and personally issued military edicts one by one, he suddenly thought of something and asked casually: "By the way, how are those heavenly beings? Are they here?"
Advertising, [app] is really good, worth installing, even Android and Apple phones support it!
A close confidant sitting closer replied: "I've seen it. They are all weak in strength, that is, they can be compared with some low-level sergeants, but they are indeed fearless of life and death. That's just a... well, a strength, right?"
These words immediately elicited a few low chuckles.
King Xi smiled and said: "Then at least my great-nephew doesn't have to worry about the pensions of these people."
The people around him burst out laughing in unison, and some laughed particularly exaggeratedly, sending waves of echoes throughout the hall.
Another person spoke up: "Your Highness, I recruited them with good intentions and wanted to give them a chance to serve. Does Your Highness know what they said?"
Seeing King Xi looking over with interest, this man became even more excited and said: "These heavenly beings actually asked me to sign a covenant with them, just like King Xi's grandnephew." There was a look of contempt on his face.
"Are they worthy?"
Someone sneered: "A group of subordinates who don't know where they come from and don't know the rules at all." He smiled flatteringly at King Xi, "When His Highness unified the Hao tribe, we must suppress these people together. Maybe we can build a place to worship them."
People watching?”
King Xi smiled again, waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't worry about these 'celestial beings'..."
At this time, a young clan member sitting closer to the front suddenly said: "Why don't you tell me? Uncle, I think that with the help of heaven and man, the fiefdom in Mianlu was built quite well." He said in a joking tone,
"What if my uncle gives it to my nephew?"
King Xi looked at him and said: "Bianye's fiefdom? Yanding, if you take this place away, I'm afraid Bianye will come to me to seek justice."
The young clan member said nonchalantly, "Well, uncle, give him another piece of land. The place is not big. He can build it in twenty years. I believe he can build it in another twenty years."
King Xi looked at him for a moment, as if he was thinking seriously. He clapped his palms with his staff and finally said, "It's a remote place and it's really not a good place. If you like it, you can take it." He pointed with his staff again.
Pointing at him, he smiled and cursed: "This is what you want, but don't hold your uncle back when we march."
The young clan member agreed immediately and said, "Okay, let's make an agreement with uncle." He stood up, straightened his clothes, and saluted, "Uncle, I'm going to organize the army."
King Xi waved to him.
The young clan member nodded to everyone and walked out of the hall. After a while, a man in the clan's attire stopped him from behind. He then chased after him and asked, "Yanding, why are you doing this?"
Do you have to take that piece of land? Is there some mystery there?"
Zhu Yanding sneered and said: "Where is the mystery? I just promised Zhu Ye to open this mouth. He is willing to give me some benefits. Since I can get benefits and it is just a matter of casual words, why not do it?"
"
Another clan member's eyes flickered, and he said in a tone that seemed to be envious: "I also want such benefits."
Zhu Yanding said: "Then we have to talk to Yanhe and Zhu Yeheng. Okay," he said impatiently: "I need to go to organize the army, so I won't talk to you anymore."
After he left, the clan member looked at a guard sergeant standing far away and said, "Did you hear everything? Don't deny it. I know you can hear it. Go and send the original words to Mr. Chen."
Yes, I allow it."
The sergeant looked at him hesitantly.
The clan relative smiled, turned around and said, "Don't worry, I'm not testing you. Even if you don't tell, His Highness King Xi will know about it. It will be bad if you don't tell him." As he walked further away, the voice also
He became more and more erratic. When the sergeant looked up, he had already walked many steps. His expression changed several times, and finally he hurriedly walked in one direction.
Two days later, a flying letter was delivered to Mianlu City. Wang Daoren first received the letter, and then hurriedly found Zhu Zonghu and said a few words in a hurry. The latter asked in shock: "Change a fiefdom?"
Wang Daoren said: "Zong Hu, that's what the original book said."
Although Zhu Zonghu was a little serious, he didn't look too panicked and asked: "Can you confirm?"
"It can be confirmed." Wang Daoren said: "This is sent by the 'celestial being' lurking there, because we are not yet able to build the creation sun star. The official news will be sent by flying boat, and it will be delivered to the destination in about five days.
.”
Zhu Zonghu thought for a while and ordered his followers: "Go and invite Mr. Tao and Mr. Yin over."
Not long after, Zhang Yujia and Yin Huanting both arrived. After inviting them to sit down, Zhu Zonghu personally narrated the matter and said: "Zhu Yeheng's promotion must be indispensable behind this matter. Please invite the two of them to sit down."
I came here just to find a solution."
Yin Huanting said: "I dare to ask Zonghu, King Xi suddenly transferred Zonghu's fiefdom. Is this in compliance with the rules?"
Taoist Wang looked at Zhu Zonghu and said from the side: "According to convention, if Zonghu has not made any mistakes or violated his own moral obligations, King Xi should not do such things without any reason.
But when it comes to the Hao clan's rectification, all fiefdoms are illegal, and Zonghu is the nominal successor of King Xi, so he and his clan cannot get along, and no one will speak out about this matter."
Yin Huanting nodded and said: "That means that if King Xi does not change his mind, then the Zonghu will not be able to object from a legal perspective?"
Zhu Zonghu said: "Mr. Yin, that's it." He laughed at himself: "In fact, there is no precedent for transferring a title, but you must obtain the permission of your subordinates in advance. Although this is just a superficial formality, but now
There is not even this scene, my great-uncle really doesn’t take me to heart, but it makes you laugh."
Yin Huanting was very calm and said: "Then we can only deal with this matter by ourselves. Zong Hu has only two choices. One is to give up the fief. Although the fief has been built for twenty years, as long as the people keep it, everything will be fine.
You can start over.
But Zong Hu, you can be transferred to another place today, and you can be transferred to another place tomorrow. King Xi may never give Zong Hu a chance to accumulate enough strength. Moreover, after another twenty years, King Xi will treat Zong Hu.
What’s your attitude towards protecting it?”
The king said: "Zong Hu, what Mr. Yin said makes sense."
Zhu Zonghu also nodded and said, "Mr. Yin, what is the other option?"
Yin Huan Ting said: "That means choosing to confront King Xi. We must force him to give up this idea."
Zhu Zonghu looked serious and said, "What did Mr. Yin think about it?"
Yin Huanting said: "There are several ways. Since the fiefdom is to be handed over to Zhu Yanding, there is no need to argue. Just send people to deal with this person. There will be civil strife within his own family, and he will no longer think of taking over the clan protection.
It’s a fiefdom, but this matter is more difficult, and it will definitely leave trouble.”
He paused, "There is another thing. King Ling Xi took the initiative to withdraw the order."
Zhu Zonghu said: "How to take it back?"
Yin Huanting said: "As long as you show enough strength, you just have to take a little risk, but it will deepen the bad blood between Zonghu and King Xi. If King Xi doesn't pursue it now, he will pursue it in the future."
Zhu Zonghu said: "There has never been a harmonious relationship between me and this great-uncle."
Yin Huanting said: "Then..."
Zhang Yu raised his head slightly at this time and said with the Xuntian Daozhang: "Yin Xuanxiu, are you going to borrow the power of the Great Chaos?"
Yin Huanting was startled. This was the first time Zhang Yu had told him about the Taoist Chapter of Training Heaven, but he couldn't see where Zhang Yu's name seal was, and he was even more sure of his own judgment.
He responded with awe in his voice: "Yes, now many of our fellow Taoists have reached the fourth chapter. If we borrow a little bit from the Great Chaos, then at least one or two fellow Taoists can successfully enter the upper realm."
.
Although this may have some consequences, once Mianlu has the upper-level power, King Xi absolutely does not want problems to arise in the rear, and we do not want him to withdraw the order, as long as it is delayed, it will be enough to save each other's face."
Although the two of them were talking to each other, there was only a slight pause for him in the audience. Everyone was preparing to listen to his words when he came down. At this time, Zhang Yu said: "If Zhu Zonghu has made up his mind, then
There is another way."
Zhu Zonghu couldn't help but turn his attention. He always attached great importance to Zhang Yu's words and sincerely asked for advice: "Mr. Tao, what can I do?"
Zhang Yudao: "Does Zhu Zonghu still remember that King Xi suffered a curse?"
Zhu Zonghu said: "Of course I remember. I still don't know who was responsible. My uncle suspects that someone close to him did it. If Mr. Tao hadn't given him the solution, I might be among the suspects.
, when the time comes, those clan members will probably use this as an excuse to criticize me."
Zhang Yudao: "I didn't give any solution to the curse at the beginning, and the curse on King Xi was not lifted. I divided it equally among the relatives, and those clansmen must be controlled by him now."
Zhu Zonghu was startled. He thought for a moment and nodded: "That may be the case. Although I heard that many clan members participated in breaking the curse, I am afraid that only my great-uncle himself knows who is involved in this matter."
Know."
Zhang Yuping said: "There is a further way to resolve this curse."
Zhu Zonghu raised his head, with a look of surprise in his eyes, and only a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes at the same time. If this method is kept, maybe in the future...
But the next moment, he gave up this idea. Even if King Xi died now, it would not be his turn to become the heir. He only had to leave a will to make him lose his identity.
He tried hard to calm down his breathing and stop his chaotic thoughts, raised his head and said, "Sir, are you saying that you can use this method in exchange for King Xi to withdraw this order?"
Zhang Yu nodded slightly and said: "But Zonghu needs to be prepared. King Xi may not like your approach."
Zhu Zonghu murmured: "I know...I know."
The first person knew that he seemed to be talking to himself, but the second person knew that his voice was firmer.
He knew very well that this actually contained a certain threat. Even if King Xi took back the order, he would definitely turn around and deal with him after the expedition was over, but it would be good to buy even a little time. He saw that
He turned to Zhang Yu and said in a firm voice: "Just use Sir's method!"
